Evolution of Bidding Processes Solar Energy Corporation of India
Solar Projects evolution in India Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission was launched on the 11th January, 2010 by the honourable Prime Minister of India. Initial target was 20000 MW 2022. Rooftop PV & Small Solar Power Generation Programme (RPSSGP) was launched in 2010. Generation based Incentive scheme based on CERC bench mark tariff was provided. Rs. 17.0 (~ $0.33) Bundling mechanism with Cheaper Thermal Power was also launched based on reverse bidding on CERC tariff. Renewable Energy Certification (REC) Mechanism implemented through imposing Solar Renewable Power Obligation (RPO) to Utilities
Status of Phase-I RPSSGP scheme -78 projects of cumulative capacity of 98 MW allocated 68 projects of 89 MW commissioned. Bundling scheme, batch 1 150 MW ( 30 projects allocated)-130 MW commissioned (26 projects) Tariff 10.95 to Rs 12.76 470 MW(7 projects ) of solar thermal projects allocated 200 MW (3 projects) commissioned. Tariff Rs.10.49 to Rs. 12.24 Bundling scheme batch -2 350 MW(28 projects) allocated- 330 MW(26 projects commissioned). Tariff Rs. 7.49 to Rs 9.44 Around 20 MW projects were developed under REC mechanism.
Status of phase-ii Viability gap funding Scheme launched in phase -2 of the mission. Fixed tariff of Rs.5.50 offered with Rs 25 Million grant support per MW. The VGF support quoted was ranging from Rs1.7 million Rs22 million with average of ~Rs12 million / MW 750 MW capacity allocated for 46 projects. 680 MW capacity has been commissioned. REC market was lost attraction - trading reduced drastically due to rapid tariff reduction.
Status of phase-ii Batch 2 to 6 are is under process in both VGF and bundling schemes. Target 10000MW under bundling scheme by NTPC 20000 MW under VGF schemes by SECI VGF scheme- Tariff- Rs.4.43 Support Rs 10 million/mw Zero VGF bids received. Tariff quoted 2.42/kWh Bundling scheme- Tariff of Rs 3.15 quoted
Bidding in wind power projects Wind power was mainly developed through FIT schemes by various states. The tariff of wind used to vary from Rs. 4.5 to 6.0/ kwh. With The success low tariff s in Solar, MNRE decided to go for reverse bidding on tariff for wind power projects. SECI recently concluded 2000 MW wind power auctions. Received the record low tariff od Rs. 2.63/kWh. Another 2000 MW tender is about to release. May 2016

Projects under execution. 5000 MW scheme: RfS for 2900 MW; PPA for 970 MW. Projects under execution. Record low tariff of Rs. 2.44 per kwh discovered. Indo-Pak Border Solarization Scheme: 5 MW commissioned 100 MW Canal-top and Canal-bank Scheme; 300 MW scheme for Defence /Para military forces; 1000 MW scheme for CPSUs Grid connected Rooftop Schemes: 1000 MW, About 100 MW commissioned. 40,000 MW Solar Parks Schemes: 34 solar parks in 21 States 4000 MW scheme for Wind power plants: Record-low tariff of Rs. 2.63/ kwh discovered. Another NIT for 2000 MW brought out.

Issues in high penetration of Solar power Solar power is intermittent/infirm in nature Scheduling of associated energy sources becomes quite difficult Prone to fluctuations due to nature. Cause instability in grid after exceeding some percentage of solar (especially in case of large installation and solar parks) Generation profile is not stable and not matches with load profile. Leads curtailment of generation of solar projects/ thermal projects. Viability of both the projects in trouble. Solutions?? Forecasting.

Better land utilization more power generated per unit area and better utilization of unused land available adjacent to the wind turbine Better use of evacuation better utilization of transmission and shared electrical infrastructure Better power generation profile power output will be more stable compared to standalone generation. Peak Demand matching: Solar addresses morning peak and wind power meets evening peak. Lower operations and maintenance O&M of True H brid park more economical and easier due to common components and resources

SECI is planning to set up 150 MW solar+ wind hybrid projects The initiative is being supported by World bank. Firming projects sites, capacities is under progress in Andhra Pradesh. Procurement plans are being worked out. The project will employ Battery energy Storage system also.
Milestones Achieved Lowest ever solar tariff of Rs. 2.44 per Unit in Rajasthan bid without any VGF Introduction of competition in procurement of wind power and trend setting tariff of Rs. 2.63 per unit in a recently concluded CTU connected wind power scheme. Bringing in competitive mode in roof top solar projects from 2013 which is continuously driving down the cost and hence the benchmark cost of the MNRE Village electrification project for 895 villages through stand alone Solar Home Lighting Systems and 4923 nos.
